Introduction
The implementation guidelines consist of two documents, this document and an example
document.
The example named “example.html” is an implementation of the widget on an empty web page.
You can use the example as a base for your own implementation or just copy code from it to paste
into your implementation.
The widget supports track & trace on the same transport services as the track & trace available on
posten.se, postdanmark.dk, tollpost.no and postenlogistik.fi.

Layout
layout=""
Neutral design to fit in on any web site.
If you want to emphasize where the search is performed and who is shipping the goods, you can
use one of these layout codes.
layout="DK"
The layout looks like the track and trace on postdanmark.dk.
layout="SE"
The layout looks like the track and trace on posten.se.
layout="NO"
The layout looks like the track and trace on tollpost.no.
4/6
Version 1.1 2013.07.01
layout="FI"
The layout looks like the track and trace on postenlogistik.fi.
layout="CUSTOM"
If you want the track and trace to match your web site in colors and fonts the custom layout let
you do that.
For example these additional values
colors="#8c0810 #420008 #ffffff #eeeae2 #8c0810 #ffffff“
fontFamily="harrington”
gives you a widget that looks like this:

Version 1.1 2013.07.01
Hide Tabs
If you do not want all search alternatives to be available there is possibility to hide one or two
alternatives. The search using cell phone number and text message code is for example only valid
if you use the service MyPack with text message notification to Sweden. Searches based on
reference and customer number requires that you have access to the customer number, which
normally only the sender has.
If you only want the item id search alternative to be displayed this is what the values in the hidden
tabs parameter should look like:
hiddenTabs="reference cellPhone"
Direct presentation of the search result
There is also an option to integrate without displaying the search form first. For example, this can
be used if you deliver a shipment ID/shipment item ID in an e-mail in html format and want to
include a link directly from that particular ID. In this case, the ID is sent as a parameter of the url.
The same kind of search is also possible to perform with customer reference and customer number
as search parameters as well as text message notification code and text message number.
Examples:
http://yourcompany.com/yourwidgetpage.html?searchId=82525252525SE
http://yourcompany.com/yourwidgetpage.html?searchCustomerNumber=0123456782&searchReference=
1111
http://yourcompany.com/yourwidgetpage.html?searchPhone=46767811661&searchNotificationCode=1

This solution suggests that you implement the widget on your web server. If you for some reason
are unable to do so, there is an alternative way, where you use the implementation on PostNord’s
web server instead. For details about this solution please contact your local representative at
Posten, Post Danmark, Tollpost or Posten Logistik SCM Oy.
